"Despite Kerry’s pending signature, don’t panic just yet. The treaty must also be ratified by the Senate, which is unlikely to happen in the immediate future.

In fact, in March, the Senate voted to keep the US out of the arms treaty by a vote of 53-46.

Treaties require a 2/3 majority vote by the Senate in order to be ratified, however, unlike regular bills, treaties do not have to be reintroduced for each session of Congress. This means the treaty could sit in committee until the Senate is more likely to pass it after future elections."

Kerry can sign whatever it won't matter. Why is the rest of the world so damn interested in disarming rightful gun owners in America? What part of it is our right in our country you don't understand and some Americans too?

Long time gun owner here. I have never shot my toe off or my neighbor, shot up the mall or a church or anything else. I am a responsible owner along with millions of other in this country. Gun ownership is one of my passions. I enjoy every aspect of having them and will continue to do so.

An old saying perhaps even a bit corny but outlaw guns and only outlaws will have guns.
